Combatting Cyberterrorism or just combatting the people?

The Obama Administration and Control of the Internet.

I wrote this in response to an article in Alex Jones Prison Planet in which he discussed the potential effects of the DHS taking over the Internet, ostensively to protect the ability to use the Internet in the case of a major flu pandemic. A good read for those who are increasingly concerned about the socialist slant of the present government.

The potential epidemic is, of course, a deep concern for business, commerce, and government. To a greater extent each year, we rely on the Internet for nearly every possible action that was formerly conducted manually or in person.

However, to give the Government, and especially DHS, the unfettered right to control it for the sake of the flu or anything else is a bit disconcerting. The Government, of course, contends that it is uniquely capable of providing the levelso of cybersecurity needed--from the lips of the same people who have the worst record on the planet for protection of their own sites.

Then there is the other site of the coiun. Obama asks that we trust him and his DHS people--this from the latest person to run for the highest office in the land who has broken EVERY promise made to the American public and driven us closer to socialism than at any time since WWII.

DHS and NSA have been trying for years to take over the Internet--this is just another aspect of this driving ambition to be in charge of our thoughts and words. Sure sounds like socialism to me.
